I am pretty stupid about this stuff. Would you know if your computer was a zombie?

I have a recurring issue on one XP Home laptop. A rootkit is repeatedly infecting atrac.dll; Norton doesn’t seem to even detect it. I got an antivirus from PCTools, and that disables it, but fails to delete or quarantine it. Another computer on the home network is on Symantec and is fine.

Anyone experienced anything similar?

With the internet now hooked into everything... trusted to run it all.. it is only time before it became self- aware...

So I suggest life in prison or even capital punishment for hackers who release viruses.

BUT!!! these are the same people who FIND these leaks in the system, so I also suggest a substantial cah reward for anyoine who can find BUT NOT RELEASE a virus loophole.

I worked and went to school with many of these assholes.

The 30 year old living in his parents basement IS correct but there is a mangerial level who control them for these beusinss ventures.

This wasn’t what I had in mind when I think about fighting “zombies” with my AR.

I always wondered - I’ve had this nagging feeling for years that cyber security software companies secretly fund some hackers and virus creators in order to increase business and broaden revenue streams. It’s just a feeling.

I mean this with 100% honesty. I support the Death Penalty for anyone who writes and releases a Virus or Malware. They do hundreds of millions in damage.

Argue all you want, but i’d pull the trigger today. Id also expand the death penalty to include anyone who forces a purse away from an elderly woman. They’ll never be worth a damn either.

“A new report from security company McAfee..”

Yup. No self interest there..

I’m certain the makers of Tamiflu would like to talk to you about swine flu too...
